Chicago outshot Toronto 31-8 (14-3 in shots on target), fired in 41 crosses to Toronto s two and had a 13-1 edge in corners as TFC lived dangerously at Soldier Field. We bent a lot, said Bono, whose club record for wins in all competitions now stands at 56. We were bending, bending and bending but we really didn t break.
Bono s career-high 13 saves erased the club single-game mark of 10 set twice by Greg Sutton (in April 2007 at Chivas USA and August 2008 at Colorado Rapids). While the Toronto keeper was sharp, Chicago s finishing often left something to be desired.
